Personnel
gollark: Depends what you mean by "communism"?
gollark: The anarchocommunist-or-whatever idea of everyone magically working together for the common good and planning everything perfectly and whatnot also sounds nice but is unachievable.
gollark: I mean, theoretically there are some upsides with central planning, like not having the various problems with dealing with externalities and tragedies of the commons (how do you pluralize that) and competition-y issues of our decentralized market systems, but it also... doesn't actually work very well.
gollark: I do, but that isn't really what "communism" is as much as a nice thing people say it would do.
gollark: I don't consider it even a particularly admirable goal. At least not the centrally planned version (people seem to disagree a lot on the definitions).
